SERVICE DIRECTORY

Trilogy provides a vetted, comprehensive directory of services that enables consumers to quickly locate
local programs and resources and make informed choices about what they need. We begin with data provided by
the client and then acquire, collect and assemble any additional data specific to the region and target
audience as required. We evaluate this data in partnership with the client and make any necessary
improvements/additions until the data is deemed launch-ready. Trilogy will then continually maintain the
Service Directory for our customers to ensure accurate information for their users.

Finding the right therapist can be hard. And if you need help right now, it can be even harder and more frustrating to go through the process of setting up initial evaluations and appointments—especially virtually. Now, more than ever, with social distancing guidelines and the imminent threat of a deadly virus, your mental health might be taking a toll. It might be even harder to take care of yourself because the very practices you once used to cope, like exercise, shopping, or socializing with friends, hardly look like they once did.

Finding the right therapist can be hard. And if you need help right now, it can be even harder and more frustrating to go through the process of setting up initial evaluations and appointments—especially virtually. Now, more than ever, with social distancing guidelines and the imminent threat of a deadly virus, your mental health might be taking a toll. It might be even harder to take care of yourself because the very practices you once used to cope, like exercise, shopping, or socializing with friends, hardly look like they once did.

So, we thought we’d help you get started. If you’re struggling to summon the energy to begin the process of finding a therapist, here’s a list of free mental health resources around Boston, ranging from helplines to social support groups to tips and advice on dealing with anxiety and what social media accounts might be helpful to follow. If you’re looking for a clinician to talk with through teletherapy, it can help for the search to be a little more directed, and some of these resources can guide you in that endeavor as well.

Try to keep your head up, and don’t put off reaching out for help—that first step can be hard, but your mental health is worth it.

Massachusetts Department of Mental Health

Collectively, we’re all under some extra stress right now, whether you’re conscious of it or not. The Department of Health has an extensive list of resources to aid anyone who is struggling right now that was created specifically for the coronavirus crisis. There are tips for healthy coping, advice for how to combat isolation and loneliness, activities for kids, and telephone peer support groups. There are also resources and support for survivors of domestic violence and a list of news and social media accounts to follow.

National Alliance on Mental Illness Massachusetts

NAMI Massachusetts is a nonprofit organization that works to provide education and support programs, as well as taking part in advocacy efforts. Through their website, you can find peer support, look for a provider, and browse other resources, some of which are particularly geared toward young people. If you’re looking for a therapist to talk to, this is a great website to compare which providers take your insurance, and it also provides links to services that can refer you to appropriate counselors or social workers in Massachusetts. In addition, on the second and fourth Thursday of every month, they host a free Support@Home meeting via Zoom that includes a short wellness presentation followed by a facilitated group conversation.

Network of Care Massachusetts

Besides just providing a way for patients to get help from a provider, Network of Care Massachusetts has also created an extensive COVID-19 mental health PDF that includes information on self-care and coping strategies during the pandemic, working from home tips, and mindfulness and meditation resources. The COVID-19 information hub they compiled also includes information specific to food assistance, housing and shelter, and unemployment. It is also kept updated with government regulations from Governor Charlie Baker.

The Massachusetts Substance Use Helpline

If you or someone you know struggles with substance abuse, this time can be extra difficult. The Massachusetts Substance Use Helpline is available for adults and youth struggling with addiction. The call line is available 24/7 at 800-327-5050, and you can also search for providers and recovery community activities. Included on their COVID-19 resources page is information on how substances can impact immune systems and lead to increased risk of contracting the virus.

The National Association of Free and Charitable Clinics

There are approximately 1,400 free and charitable clinics and pharmacies across the nation, and around Boston, there are a few to choose from. The closest ones are in Malden, Wellesley, and Sudbury. Luckily, most clinics have transitioned to online teletherapy services for virtual care. Included on their website is information regarding how to take care of yourself and others during coronavirus, as well as information on how to download the mindfulness app Headspace for free if you are a healthcare worker.

Massachusetts General Hospital Psychiatry

The hospital has compiled a long list of resources for those struggling with mental health. There are resources for general coping, specific mental health conditions, and activities families and children can do together to reduce stress and anxiety. For health care providers, there are even specially developed resources to highlight the mental health needs specific to what they’re going through.

If you, or a family member, are experiencing a mental health crisis call the Emergency Services Program/Mobile Crisis Intervention hotline at 1-877-382-1609.

(WKOW) -- As the coronavirus pandemic continues, closing down businesses and keeping people inside, experts say they have growing concerns about mental health.

Rural program connects community with mental health services during pandemic

(WKOW) -- As the coronavirus pandemic continues, closing down businesses and keeping people inside, experts say they have growing concerns about mental health.

Bridget Mouchon-Humphrey, program manager for the Southwestern Wisconsin Behavioral Health Partnership, says the group of stakeholders is hoping more people will reach out for services.

The partnership runs a website helping people find resources for mental health care and substance use disorders in rural areas. It covers Grant, Green, Iowa, Lafayette and Richland counties.

"This was a group that formed around this idea that we can really make some changes to how we access behavioral health resources in our community and how we can really increase what's available for people in our community," Mouchon-Humphrey told 27 News.

Mental health care providers have reported a drop in people using telehealth services right now, during this stressful time.

The team has also seen, anecdotally, an increase in overdoses in southwestern Wisconsin and across the state, which is believed could be connected with the stresses of the pandemic.

"We're very concerned because people don't have access in the first place to a whole lot of recovery support in rural areas," she said. "So many things have changed with COVID that there is some concern that there's going to be an increase in overdoses and other problems for people who are trying to be in recovery."

The site offers tips on how to manage anxiety over COVID-19, while also providing data on the coronavirus in the area.

Farmers are coping with some of the most stressors right now, as dairy farms continue closing and farmers are left with no one to sell their products to as the nation shuts down.

Dairy farmers, for example, were expecting 2020 to be a turnaround year after suffering big losses in milk prices and sales. But the coronavirus put an end to that comeback.

Wisconsin's Farm Center has taken 82 requests from farmers to get vouchers for counseling services from January through April 18. That's almost as many as were requested for the entire year of 2018, at 89. Vouchers were at the highest all decade in 2019, when farmers requested 182.

"The Farm Center really does a nice job of trying to screen so that the therapist [the farmer is] referred to has some ag background, or some knowledge of the realities of life on the farm, and the stressors on a farm, and that's really important for the farmer, when they need to speak to a therapist, that knows what they're going through," Frakes said.

The partnership program is also working on mental health outreach. Normally, the groups hold community events or trainings, but those have been put on hold. The advocates are instead reaching out directly to farmers who they know may need some help.

But they've also seen farmers step up in big ways to help others in the community by donating their products, even as they're struggling.

"There's also the evidence of resiliency, where people are figuring out how can we match an excess in product with where there's real need and how do we make those connections work to support the well being of the whole community," Frakes said.

About

The Network of Care utilizes the Internet for social good by providing fast and
easy access to comprehensive community services, information, support, and
assistance on a localized level to millions of people nationwide. The goal
of the Network of Care is to ensure "No Wrong Door" exists for those in need
of social services and provide trusted information for anyone interested in
making better decisions about the health and well-being of themselves and those
around them.

Starting with a pilot project in the area of aging and long-term care for the
Californian counties of Alameda and Sacramento in 2000, the Network of Care
quickly grew to over a dozen counties before expanding into the behavioral health
field for San Diego County in 2003. The success and growth of these websites
eventually led to the development of a suite of Network of Care products and
services that are utilized in over 30 states and 600 counties today.
Trilogy Integrated Resources continues to improve the platform with the latest version released in 2019.
